Seraphim Director AJ Bennett Talks Indie Filmmaking & What’s Next

Your Screen Jockey Chris sits down with director AJ Bennett of RDE Films, the filmmaker behind Seraphim—a fan-made action movie set in the John Wick universe that’s already racked up over 24,000 views on YouTube.

Filmed in Colorado Springs, Seraphim is proof that you don’t need Hollywood to make a legit action film. In this episode, we dive into how AJ pulled it off—gear, budget, fight choreography, crew size, and the real-life challenges of indie filmmaking.

We also talk about what’s next for AJ and RDE, including their upcoming project Apocryphia, which is currently in pre-production.

If you've ever wanted to make a movie—or just want to know how it's done without a studio—this one's for you.
